What makes you think the address is incorrect? Perhaps the street number is
just missing altogether.

Here's an address example for you ....

John Doe
Box 12345
Anytown, New York

You and UPS may have difficulty physically locating such an address ,however
I'm pretty sure USPS would not.

Been there, done that. Dozens of times.

I would, but this UPS hub is about 20+ miles from me. UPS trucks
don't have GPS. They have to hand write notes to the driver (I've seen
some of these notes). It's just stupidity.

The point is the address ISN'T incorrect. The address is fine. The
address is there. Every time this happens, UPS says "Is this address
correct"? Yes. Yes. Yes.

"So.... if the address is OBVIOUSLY incorrect... "

They don't have to deliver the item, which will save money. Premeditated
non-delivery = Fraud; as the mail is Federal ;-)

We apologize for your inconvenience. Due to the Obama administrations
advocacy of removing Federal oversight of the Teamsters, managers have been
working double time to insure the heightened stress management of our
drivers. All of which, at this time are Teamster Members. We expect to have
this under control shortly with null contracts shifted to our sister company
FedEx, a Geithner Company! Please be patient, we are doing all we can to help
subvert any organizational policy and reduce your costs through further
layoffs, both in management AND on the street. Brownshirts just don't
represent the image we here at UPS like to project today!
